A Bumpy Road to Power

Throwing Jocelyn Tate onto the sofa.

At this moment, the effects of the drug were at its peak.

Dirk Carter wanted to stand up.

But Jocelyn held tightly onto his neck.

"Dirk, give it to me, give it to me, I feel terrible, I need you, you give me..."

She pleaded like a pitiful worm.

Dirk could only control her agitated body and said, "You're poisoned, hold on, I'll take you to a cold shower now, it should help."

After saying this.

He picked up Jocelyn again and entered the office's private bathroom.

Just putting her down on the floor.

Jocelyn's hand tore off Dirk's shirt, reaching inside from the hem and caressing his chest.

He couldn't care anymore.

Dirk directly turned on the cold water and ran towards Jocelyn.

Under the stimulation of the cold water, he thought Jocelyn would lose half of the drug effects, but it didn't happen; the water flowing over her seemed to have no effect at all.

Dirk gritted his teeth.

Sitting Jocelyn on the ground.

He spread her legs apart.

Used the shower head to spray between her flooding legs.

The pouring cold water hit the reddened petals.

Initially, under the water's stimulation, Jocelyn still felt comfortable, closing her eyes blissfully, lowly groaning from her throat.

After all, it was winter.

The water was still too cold.

Under this continuous wash.

The redness on Jocelyn's face began to gradually fade away.

The fiery flames in her eyes started to slowly extinguish as well.

Her breathing bit by bit became calm.

Even the swollen petals affected by the drug began to gradually return to their normal state.

Thus it can be seen.

The effects of the drug were starting to wane.

The entire person shivered, and with a plunk, tilted over onto the bathroom floor.

Dirk picked up her unconscious body.

Then he removed all of her wet clothes.

Gently placed her on the sofa.

Afterward, he found a dry towel from the bathroom and gently wiped her wet body.

Even though the body in front of him was tempting.

But toward her, Dirk had no evil thoughts; all he thought about was taking care of her, not letting her be bullied.

After drying every part between her curves and crevices.

Dirk found a blanket to cover her naked body.

Took a long breath and sat beside her, checking her pulse, fortunately, it was normal.

She should only be temporarily unconscious under the drug's impact now.

Didn't know how long had passed.

Jocelyn opened her eyes.

Seeing the office ceiling, she suddenly shivered.

The hand under the blanket touched her bare body, and she sat up in a panic.

The soft blanket.

Naturally slid off her body as well.

Even after the redness faded, her peaks were still firm, and those two grapes, still look swollen.

At this time, she saw Dirk sitting nearby watching her, screamed, and covered her body with the blanket.

"You... Did you undress me?"

Jocelyn asked breathlessly.

Dirk nodded and said, "I should remember what happened before you fainted, right?"

Jocelyn was stunned.

In her mind, she recalled the whole event properly.

She didn't have amnesia.

From someone reporting the warehouse fire to her, entering the warehouse being controlled by Freya Bates, then in front of Freya...

Even worse was the image of Dirk using a shower head to "put out the fire" in the office.

The more she thought, the less she dared to think about it.

The more she thought, the shyer she felt on her face.

At that moment, embarrassed, she just wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground.

Suddenly, she stiffened, looked at Dirk, and asked, "The camera, Freya Bates had a camera, he... he took many photos of me..."

Dirk smiled slightly.

Took a memory card out of his pocket.

Placed it on the coffee table and said, "The photos and videos are inside."

As if electrocuted.

Jocelyn quickly reached for the memory card.

In that gap.

The blanket slipped off her body again.

This time due to leaning forward, the blanket fell directly on the ground.

The scenery between her legs was also exposed to Dirk.

Flustered, she hurried to pick up the blanket.

Dirk said calmly, "Actually, you don't need to panic; your body, all that should and shouldn't be seen, I've seen it, and I was the one who took off your clothes, every drop of water on your body was wiped by me."

Jocelyn took a sharp breath.

Asked, "Did you also wipe my... my private parts?"

"Of course, otherwise, how would you avoid getting a cold?"

Dirk said indifferently.

Jocelyn's face turned even redder.

Although she was sometimes unreasonable, she knew Dirk did not take advantage of her vulnerability but to save her.

"How... How did you appear in the warehouse?"

Jocelyn asked.

Dirk smiled slightly and said, "Coincidence."

"Coincidence? No matter how coincidental, you couldn't appear in the factory's warehouse. Were you... Were you secretly protecting me all this time?"

Jocelyn bit her lip and still voiced her suspicion.

Dirk initially wanted to brush it off.

But the words stuck in his throat.

Nodded and said, "Yes!"

"But I've already told you, we're even now. Why do you still protect me?"

Jocelyn asked incredulously.

Dirk exhaled, saying, "Because you're my godfather's daughter, I must do it!"

At that moment.

For some reason.

Jocelyn's eyes suddenly turned red.

She looked at Dirk in front of her and asked, "Even though I'm so heartless, you don't mind?"

"Mind? But it doesn't matter, I owe my godfather; he's not here, luckily, there's you!"

The phrase "luckily, there's you."

The tears circling in Jocelyn's eyes, finally rolled down.

Took a deep breath.

And said, "Thank you."

This time's thank you was completely different from the last one.

It carried more sincerity and trust.

Dirk slightly nodded, at that moment, he suddenly felt everything he did was worth it.

The fact is just like this.

After the two parted at the entrance of the administration building.

Dirk anticipated that Valerie Fisher and her kind would definitely not let things rest, so he had been following the two.

Unexpectedly, he really stumbled upon their conspiracy; he just arrived a bit late, otherwise, Jocelyn wouldn't have swallowed the pill.

Jocelyn initially thought it was just Freya Bates' revenge.

After learning the truth, she was furious; if not for Dirk saying there were other arrangements, she would have already called her grandfather, Gunner Fisher, to tell him the truth.

Like that, the two talked all night.

Dirk told her about the things Dylan Tate did over these years, and Jocelyn also talked a lot with Dirk.

She told Dirk.

Her impressions of her father, Dylan Tate, were very faint already.

Years ago, due to a severe illness, her mother took her abroad, and she suffered a lot until her late teens when the chronic illness was finally fully treated.

At that time, her mother, Darlene Fisher, called Dylan Tate, telling him they wanted to return.

But Dylan Tate said that after being separated for so many years, there were no feelings between them anymore, whether they came back or not, the two could never be together again.

To Jocelyn at that time.

Her father was heartless and cold.

Until a few years ago.

The bad news about Dylan Tate reached her ears.

She even felt fortunate about her father's death.

Unexpectedly, her mother directly slapped her, telling her that her father was the best, most responsible man in the world.

It was also at this time that her mother began to gradually reveal the truth about their separation over the years.
